Three teenagers, a dog walker, a cleaner and one house key that keeps going missing. You are tired of cutting copies and would rather give each person a code you can switch off, with a proper deadbolt behind it.

Locked out
Safely, right now
- Stay somewhere warm and safe while you wait, such as a neighbour's or your car.
- Don't break a window or pry the door. It adds damage without getting you in sooner.
- Have a photo ID with your address ready if you can.
Key broke in the lock
Safely, right now
- Don't push the broken piece back in or try the lock again.
- Keep the piece you still have. It helps cut a new key.
Lock won't turn
Safely, right now
- Stop turning hard: a key that bends or snaps makes the job bigger.
- Don't spray oil or glue into it, and don't pour hot water on it in the cold.
Lost keys
Safely, right now
- Keys lost together with your address? Assume someone could use them.
- Don't hide a spare key anywhere outside in the meantime, not even under the mat.
A deadbolt is only as strong as the hole it was bored into and the plate it throws into. In Maskinonge Park we install new deadbolts on doors that have never had one, replace worn units on doors that have, and set the strike so the bolt slides home without lifting or leaning on the door. Nearby, we also work in Clardon Beach and Mount Pleasant.

The fix, explained · Maskinonge Park
What is the door doing?
EmergencyHome Lockout ServiceAfter a week of humid weather the back door has swollen in its frame.
The fix
Most lockouts end with the original lock still on the door and still working. That is the point of professional entry: picks, tension tools, decoders and latch tools are designed to operate the mechanism the way a key would, without cutting or prying anything.
EmergencyBusiness Lockout ServiceThe heavy glass door has been scraping the threshold for weeks.
The fix
Businesses are locked out by people as often as by hardware. A keyholder is away, a former employee still has a key, a master key has gone missing, or the only spare lives in a drawer behind the locked door.
EmergencyBroken Key ExtractionIn the parking lot your car key snapped in the driver's door.
The fix
A car key that breaks in the door or the ignition is handled with the same extraction tools, with one difference. On most vehicles the plastic head of the key carries the transponder chip and the remote buttons, and that half is usually intact in your hand.
EmergencyBreak-In Damage Lock RepairThere is a hole where the cylinder used to be.
The fix
A break-in repair happens alongside a police file and an insurance claim, and a good locksmith keeps both in mind. Before any hardware is moved the damage is photographed as found: door face, edge, strike, jamb, hinges and glass.

EmergencySeized & Jammed Lock OpeningThe key turns a full circle without any resistance and the deadbolt stays exactly where it is.
The fix
Most seized locks can be saved, and keeping your existing hardware is the aim. A cylinder that has stopped turning is usually recoverable with cleaning and fresh internal parts.

EmergencyLost Keys — Same-Visit RekeyYou were shovelling the driveway after dark and the ring must have slid out of your coat pocket somewhere under a metre of snow.
The fix
Rekeying and replacing a lock arrive at the same place by different roads. Replacement puts new hardware on the door: a new deadbolt or handle, and a finish that may not match its neighbours.

Every time the courtyard gate closes, it slams hard enough to rattle the fence panels, and the deadlatch never quite drops into the keeper before the spring yanks it the rest of the way. One good gust of wind and it bounces right back open.
3 / 9
You've just moved in, and the mailbox compartment in the lobby came with a single key the previous owner mailed back separately, or never handed over at all. As far as anyone can tell, the lock still answers to a stranger's key.
4 / 9
The accountant's office keeps a decade of client files in cardboard boxes because the only safe in the building is a small drawer safe meant for a laptop, nowhere near large enough for binders of paper.
5 / 9
The office has been reshuffled twice since the locks were last touched. Reception can open the server room, the warehouse crew has a key to accounting, and the chart that once explained who could open what has not been seen since the move.
6 / 9
After a busy shift the manager counts the keys coming back in and loses track of who still has one. The walk-in cooler, the liquor cage and the office desk are all supposed to be separate, but the same battered key seems to fit two of them.
7 / 9
The only key to the car went into the lake with the kayak. Now the car sits locked in the driveway with a full tank, and there is no spare in the house, in a coat pocket or anywhere else.
8 / 9
A second driver has joined the household, and the one existing key gets handed back and forth between two schedules that rarely line up. Everyone agrees another key would settle the daily handoff, but nobody has looked into how a modern ignition actually learns a new one.
9 / 9
The key turned the engine off in the driveway and now refuses to come back out. Wiggling it, pushing the shifter through every gear again, even leaning gently on the wheel; the barrel keeps holding on to it regardless.

What the census means at the door
43%
Homes of every age. About 43% of homes in Georgina were built in 1980 or earlier, according to the 2021 Census.
In areas with homes from many decades, a locksmith gets to match the solution to the house rather than apply one answer everywhere. Period hardware stays on the houses that suit it; modern security goes where the door and the household want it.
83%
Mostly houses. Single-detached houses make up about 83% of homes in Georgina (2021 Census).
Where the housing is mostly single houses, the door into the house from an attached garage is easy to overlook because it feels indoors. It is still an exterior door, and a proper deadbolt there is a sensible, low-fuss upgrade.

What to expect, answered
Can I stop people copying my house key?
A restricted keyway helps with that. The key blanks are controlled by the manufacturer and its authorised locksmiths, so a copy generally requires the card, record or authorisation the program uses, cutting down on copies made at an ordinary kiosk. It suits homes where keys are lent to cleaners, contractors or tenants. The cylinders are fitted in the normal way, and you keep the key card safe because it is what future copies depend on.
Our property has a lot of separate gates. Is there a way to manage that with fewer keys?
Yes, a master key arrangement is a common answer: individual gates each keep their own key for day-to-day use, while one additional master key opens all of them for whoever manages the whole property, such as an owner or a maintenance contractor. Setting this up means recombining or replacing the cylinders involved so they share a compatible pinning structure, which is planned out before any single gate's lock is touched, so the system works as intended once finished.
Is it common for a previous owner or tenant to keep a mailbox key?
It happens more often than people expect, especially in a building where compartments changed hands with a single set of keys and no clear record of who returned what. Replacing the lock rather than simply asking around settles it, since a new cylinder makes any key still out there, regardless of who holds it, stop working.
How often does the battery need replacing on an electronic lock?
Most electronic locks give a low-battery warning, usually a beep or flashing light, well before they actually stop working, and replacing the battery within that same week is the safer habit rather than waiting. Depending on how often the safe is opened, a battery commonly lasts somewhere between one and several years, and keeping a spare of the correct type near the safe avoids a search once the warning starts.
